Beyond these eyes

We all look at life
A little different
From person to person
Each with a different
Point of view

But take time
To look me in the eyes
And see whats beyond them

Is it fear
Or courage
Is it hatred
Or love
Are the emotions peaceful
Or full of rage
Am I young
Or old
Am I foolish
Or a wise sage

The eyes
Are the windows to the soul
And it's a calamity
That you push it aside

What are you afraid of
That I'm like you
Human too
Tough yet frail
find out who I am
And
look beyond these eyes

You might be surprised
A what you find
